New button #1:
Pause.
When paused, the barracks will not spawn new troops to the campground.
Troops will continue to 'cook' but will not spawn.
Useful to control which barracks the next troop spawns from.
New button #2:
Clear.
Wipes out all queued troops.
Eliminate tedious removing troops from queue.
Confirmation pop-up?
Just want to add that I think this should be really easy to implement from a software standpoint, and will be helpful to all players of all play styles.
I definitely agree with the Pause button idea. It's so irritating to want to make small changes to my army, but because of certain barracks being ready to dump troops I have to clear the entire queue and start from scratch... For instance, I wanted to replace a pekka and a few other troops with a golem, but because 2 barracks already had completed pekkas in them, I had to clear them both...
I could see the use of a Clear All button, but only if it has a confirmation dialog, it's already mind-numbing to accidentally clear a long term unit when I was just trying to trim the queue down.
good point, I edited the ideaQuote:

If you have hounds and loons cue'd with a full camp.. Then you donate a hound.. 4 loons will come out (and not the cued hound) A pause button or smarter barrack releasing would be huge.
How about a button that trims troops in all barracks to the same time and capacity of camps I do that manually to start a fresh new army in my barracks ( 400plu capacity) and to sometimes add a large time consuming troop at the end while I search bases and attack or go to lunch :)
Both are pretty solid ideas. Simple, won't damage any of the delicate game balance and don't have any real downside themselves. My only hesitation would be the list of more beneficial changes already in the works. I would be happy to see these added eventually but I would rather the developers work on more pressing matters in the short term.
Very much needed. balancing troops is e problem when we are farming. a sort of intelligent barracks is needed
Yes great idea mate and as u said I'm sure it's easy to implement 😎😎😎😎👍👍👍👍
Thanks for the positive feedback.Quote:

The most challenging thing will be finding some real estate for the buttons in the GUI.
And there is really no balance concerns or debugging or playtesting required because these are just simple buttons.
Any kind of "intelligent" troop alignment based on some new AI algorithm is going to be far more complex.
I'd also like to eventually see a "favorites" list of army composition that queues up with 1 click.
But that requires creating a new data structure in addition to a new GUI interface.
